HYDERABAD: The Telangana Real Estate Regulatory Authority (TG RERA) has imposed a fine of ₹25.8 lakh on Sunrise Infra Properties for promoting and selling plots in its Siri Vanam project without obtaining the required approvals.
Following a complaint from a third party, TG RERA determined that the company was marketing agricultural land as farm plots, dividing them into layouts, and selling them without layout approval, land conversion, or project registration as mandated by the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act. Documentation such as registered sale deeds, marketing materials, and encumbrance certificates corroborated these violations.
A show cause notice was issued in April 2025. Sunrise Infra responded by denying the allegations, asserting that the land was still agricultural and no marketing had occurred. They also contested the validity of the complainant’s digital evidence. However, TG RERA dismissed these defenses.
The regulatory authority mandated that the company pay the penalty within 30 days to the TG RERA fund and prohibited it from advertising, booking, or selling plots until appropriate approvals are secured. Furthermore, the promoter was instructed to register the project once permissions are in place. A public notice will be published warning buyers against engaging in transactions related to Siri Vanam.
